Darnell didn’t want to correct her address and simply said, “Go back if you’re enough of the fuss.”

Elaine immediately ran away.

The ancestral hall was immediately prevailed by silence.

Darnell looked towards Dolores and addressed in a low voice, “Aunt.”

Dolores, who had been closing her eyes, slowly opened her eyes. Her voice was a bit shaky as she said, “Is what you instructed Vincent to tell me true.”

“They’re all true.”

Dolores said after a while of silence, “I just have one condition: don’t tell Clarence about the truth.”

“He will find it even though I don’t tell now. Moreover, the reason why those people led Clarence to Riverside is to let him find the truth.”

“We should postpone it. The later, the better.”

Darnell said, “Vincent has come back to City N to investigate this matter. I guess we will get some news in several days.”

Dolores sighed emotionally, “What can we do even if we find out who the persons behind this are. It indeed has happened and we can’t change it.”

“Aunt, please rest assured. I will keep an eye on him and I will stop him if he wants to take any dangerous actions.”

“The troubles in City N and Riverside are all caused by the pushiness and the choice I made before. I’m sorry to the James family. And…”

“Aunt, you don’t have to blame yourself. Things would not have progressed to what they are today if he didn’t covet the powers of the James family and deceive you.”

Clarence father, Dempsey Conrad, went to Riverside for business negotiations thirty years ago and got to know Dolores accidentally. Then he pursued Dolores with various means. At that time, Dolores surnamed James. She had been living in the James family and had never left Riverside because of those unwritten rules. Therefore, she developed a keen interest in the handsome man from City N.

As time passed, many of the James gradually felt that inexplicable rule unacceptable and wanted to go out of Riverside to have a look at other places.
